Health and Fitness are not the same.




His goal was to break a world record. For eleven straight days, he been been running twenty-one hours a day and sleeping a mere three hours a night.The mental challenge was as great as the physical challenge: he had to travel from the everyday world he'd lived in his entire life into one where his primary objective was the next step. He devoted years of training not only to his body, but also to his mind.His objective? To demonstrate the unlimited physical potential that lies locked within us. By breaking the previous record and running over 1000 miles in eleven days and nineteen hours, at an average of eighty-four miles per day, Stu Mittleman demonstrated that by understanding how to condition both the mind and body, one can produce results far beyond anything that society could consider possible.

 For years I have pursued those I've considered to be masters in their area of expertise and physical fitness and health have been a major focus in my life. Just as I had a hard time giving credence to a doctor who was counseling patients about health but who himself was forty pounds overweight, so to, did I question the validity of so called fitness experts who appeared emaciated and had a host of injuries and low energy levels.

 The failure of most individuals to grasp the difference between fitness and health is what causes them to experience the frustration of working out religiously and still having the same five to ten pounds stubbornly clinging to their midsection. 

 Conclusion:
Worse than that is the plight of those who make exercise the centerpiece of their lives and believe that their actions are making them healthier, yet each and every day they are pushing themselves  one step further toward fatigue, disease, and emotional upheaval.
